Patient's question:
Female, long-term lower abdominal pain and discomfort, what is the cause? Desired help: What is the cause of long-term lower abdominal pain and discomfort?Doctor's answer:
Hello, abdominal pain in women is mostly caused by gynecological diseases, but it can also be due to internal or surgical conditions. Therefore, if a woman experiences abdominal pain, she should carefully identify the nature of the pain to seek timely treatment.The pain starts in the upper abdomen and then shifts to the right lower abdomen after several hours, accompanied by nausea and vomiting, which is often acute appendicitis. Persistent abdominal pain with continuous vomiting may indicate intestinal obstruction. Severe pain in the midline of the upper abdomen, slightly to the left, accompanied by vomiting, persistent pain that worsens in episodes, and radiating to the side waist, should be considered as acute pancreatitis.
It is recommended to seek medical examination promptly to avoid delaying the condition.
